Lottery winner wears Scream mask to claim his prize so he won’t be recognized by money-hungry relatives.

A Jamaican man who won a lottery turned up in a mask to claim his £1million prize.

The man, whose name was given only as A. Cambell, wore a mask similar to the one from the movie Scream to claim his winnings. He said he did so so as not to be recognized by money-hungry relatives who would expect him to share the money with them.

A. Cambell isn’t the first lottery winner to wear a mask while claiming his money. Lottery winners in the Caribbean country often wear disguises while collecting their prizes due to high levels of crime in the country, and fears that they will be hounded for money by family and friends.
